These past few days have been a little rough for me due to a huge panic attack I had. You can read more about my panic attack here. I'm feeling much better today thanks to some excellent work books (The It Series), some me time and the support of my darling Whitesnake.
I've been enjoying taking part in the 30 days of me challenge and although I am still working on the challenge, I've decided to go off on a bit of a tangent (as is my way) and start my own challenge - 30 Days To A Happier, Healthier Me. This will help me get back on track health wise which will in turn help me overcome my anxieties. I've given myself a rough idea of how I will go about this but I've also allowed myself the flexibility to change this and go with the flow. One of the reasons I have had problems in the past is because I like to make a plan, stick to it and beat myself up if I don't stick to it...not good for me in the long run. I've also given myself permission to not have to move onto the next challenge until I am ready to (so it will most likely take me longer than 30 days). I can feel myself relaxing already!
So here's my plan of action:
1. know my numbers
2. reduce alcohol intake
3. 30 minute walk
4. 5+ per day
5. try a new recipe
6. go walkabout
7. walk 2x this week
8. treat myself to a beauty treatment
9. read
10. eat a healthy breakfast
11. cut down on caffeine
12. get enough sleep
13. challenge my brain
14. walk 3x this week
15 date night/day
16 get my hands dirty
17 have a me day
18. gratitude journal
19. take a multivitamin daily
20 don't eat 3 hrs before bedtime
21 protect my skin with sunscreen every day
22 remove makeup before bed every day
23 floss
24 wear perfume
25 walk x4 this week
26 drink more herbal tea
27 relaxation techniques
28 increase calcium intake
29 mc twice a week

Feel free to join in with me if you like, your feedback and support would be great too. I'm still going to work on the 30 days of me challenge, when I have time but my own challenge is more important at the moment.
See you tomorrow

KB: You seem to be doing all the right things. It might be as simple as you just are not looking at yourself the way we all see you. You appear to be and sound wonderful. I wish you only the best. I am sure you will soon be happier and healthier. Great plan!
